What is Codia?

Codia converts screenshots, PDFs, PSDs, slides and images into editable Figma designs, PowerPoint decks, SVG and JSON, and turns Figma designs into responsive code. One platform with plugins, a Studio editor and an API for visual reconstruction.

Codia is a family of AI products built around one idea: most visual content is stuck in flat formats, and Codia reconstructs it into text, shapes, layers and layout objects you can actually edit. The platform bundles a design-to-code converter, a screenshot to Figma plugin, PDF and PSD to Figma converters, an image to SVG tool, a prompt driven UI generator, and NoteSlide, which turns PDFs, image exports and NotebookLM deck dumps into editable PowerPoint and Keynote files. A shared engine called Codia AI Vision handles the reconstruction by reading grids, sections, alignment, typography, icon shapes and colour, then rebuilding each element as its own layer. Practical use splits into two tracks. Design teams feed screenshots, app screens, websites, posters and product images into the Studio or the Figma plugins to recover editable layers instead of rebuilding a reference by hand. Developers use the same conversion pipeline in reverse: Figma designs become responsive frontend code, and the Visual Struct API returns JSON, SVG or Figma output from a UI image for automation. Marketers sit in between, reusing converted visuals across slides, social posts and landing pages. The company is candid about limits. Its own product examples describe clean source files as the best case, note that OCR quality depends on source quality, and recommend designer review after conversion. So Codia works best as a fast first pass that removes the mechanical rebuild, not as a hands-off pipeline. It competes with dedicated screenshot-to-code tools and Figma plugins, but its breadth across PowerPoint, Figma, Canva, SVG and JSON is wider than most single purpose converters. Expect to check text accuracy and layer grouping on every output before it ships.

How do you use Codia?

  1. 1Pick the converter that matches your input file
    The homepage routes you by starting format: PDF or image deck to NoteSlide, screenshot to the Figma plugin, PSD or PDF to Figma, UI image to the Visual Struct API. Choose the product rather than guessing at a generic upload.
  2. 2Rebuild a deck with NoteSlide
    Upload a PDF, image export or AI generated slide file and let NoteSlide reconstruct editable text boxes, shapes and charts. Refine layouts afterwards with the beautify step if the styling needs a reset.
  3. 3Convert a screenshot into editable Figma layers
    Run the static reference through the screenshot to Figma flow to recover layout, text blocks and visual hierarchy as separate layers. Then open the result in Figma and fix grouping and font substitutions.
  4. 4Generate or refine a design in Studio
    Use Studio to start from a prompt or a poster, product or blog image and produce an editable design asset. Browse the inspiration gallery first if you want a starting direction.
  5. 5Turn a Figma design into frontend code
    Send a finished Figma frame through the design to code converter to get responsive frontend output. Review the generated markup and styles against your component conventions before merging.
  6. 6Automate conversion through the API
    Developers can call the Visual Struct API to extract layouts, components, text and shapes from UI images as structured data. Check the API reference for endpoints and payload formats.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Wide conversion matrix covering screenshots, PDF, PSD, web pages, Canva and PowerPoint in one placeAI
  • Output stays editable as real text, shapes and layers rather than a flattened imageAI
  • Figma plugin route keeps the workflow inside a tool designers already useAI
  • Visual Struct API gives developers structured JSON and SVG from UI imagesAI
  • NoteSlide handles image based and AI generated decks that normally need a full rebuildAI

Cons

  • Results depend heavily on source quality, with clean files called out as the best caseAI
  • OCR accuracy on low resolution screenshots or scanned PDFs can require manual cleanupAI
  • Designer review is still recommended after conversion, so time savings are partialAI
  • Feature set is spread across many separate tools and plugins, which takes time to mapAI
  • No pricing figures or plan tiers are published on the homepage to compare cost up frontAI
